What if the reading from the two outer post read 8000ohms no matter which way you turned it. Does that mean its bad. The second reading was 2.66.

I got a digital multimeter and I get a correct initial reading.

Used a Fluke 87 DMM yesterday, turn the meter of and on, while maintaining contact with the pins...in order to get an ohm reading. Using a different Fluke last night (to confirm the TPS settings did not change since riding home from work), I did not have to "reboot" it to get the readings - go figure.

If it fails the first step of the service manual, then I'd say yes, it's bad.

Soooo, what if it passes the first step, but fails the second?

If it won't adjust to spec... bad.

I guess I have to look into a replacement.

Anybody have an idea of what a TPS costs? Apparently I need to go buy a new one. Good reading on first reading, odd reading on the second.

From the Suzuki parts fiche at Ron Ayers:

Part Number: 13550-13D60
Description: THROTTLE VALVE
Price: $57.05

You local dealer will likely be higher.

Not sure why the engine being hot would make a difference. it is a position sensor, eh? I am going to call some stealers tomorrow to see price differences. thanks.

I may have to try it after a good ride to see if there is a difference between a hot motor and cold motor.
